Judge Beryl Howell, an Obama-appointed federal judge, has carved out a legacy as a judicial battering ram against Donald Trump and his allies. Her gavel was hit with a partisan venom stick.
From her 2019 ruling that handed House Democrats a treasure trove of Mueller probe secrets to her 2023 speech decrying “big lies” and January 6 “revisionist myths,” Howell’s track record reads like a litany of anti-Trump crusades.
She’s pierced attorney-client privilege to force Trump’s lawyer Evan Corcoran to testify, held Twitter in contempt for not coughing up Trump’s direct messages.She slapped Rudy Giuliani with a $148 million defamation tab for daring to question the 2020 election.
Her courtroom quips—like calling Trump a “sore loser” or likening his administration’s legal arguments to a toddler’s tantrum—exposes her a political operative in robes.
Nowhere is Howell’s alleged bias more glaring than in her ruling tonight in favor of Perkins Coie, the law firm infamous for its ties to Hillary Clinton and the Steele dossier. Trump’s Executive Order to sanction the firm—barring its lawyers from federal buildings and choking its government contracts—Howell didn’t just block it; she obliterated it with a 102-page manifesto, branding it an unconstitutional “bill of attainder” fueled by Trump’s “personal vendetta.” Her rhetoric is apocalyptic, claiming the order sent “chills down her spine” and threatened the legal profession with “blizzard proportions” of harm.
Her court room is a masterclass in weaponizing the judiciary to prop up the corrupt left. She has one of the most egregious records of anyone on the DC bench and that’s really saying something there.
From enabling Jack Smith’s witch hunts to excoriating DOGE’s efficiency reforms, Howell’s rulings consistently rule against Trump’s agenda regardless of the law. She is the poster child for the full frontal assault on the judiciary branch by a bunch of radical ideologues in black garb.
